Bug Fixes
Improved responsiveness of loading web pages in the client and in-game overlay browser
Fixed a bug confusing cached HEAD request response with GET requests in Steamworks HTTP interface
Improved fallback to different servers if first client connection attempt is to a down server
Fixed a bug not immediately logging off on shutdown in some cases, leaving your state online until a timeout period was passed
Improved line breaking/wrapping for most Asian languages
Fixed a rare crash on shutdown in the browser control
Fixed the store and community sometimes using English in the overlay instead obeying the user's language setting
Improved Japanese font rendering on the Store and Community for users on Windows Vista or later
The Steam client now detects if you’re not logged into the Steam Community or Store web pages, and automatically re-authenticates
Fix a crash occurring if a multiuser chat got enough participants with long enough names
Ensure user is logged in properly when accessing Steam web sites from the in-game overlay
Facebook suggested friend UI improvements
Fixed media playback using external player
Prevent redeeming gifts of DLC or expansion packs for users who do not own the base game
Fix the friend aliases dialog in the case where it’s the first time you have used it for a given user.
The friend aliases dialog now retrieves friend aliases from the server, and now works for chat participants or group members with whom you are not friends.
Fixed screenshot UI memory leak
Reduced memory usage after ending a game session in which a large number of screenshots were taken
Made the screenshot manager prioritize loading screenshots that are visible rather than just loading them from newest to oldest (so you see what you've just scrolled to if you scroll around while loading)
Fixed steam://openurl and steam://openurl_external links in web pages not only opening the link in the default browser, but also loading a blank black page in the Steam browser.
Fixed screenshots in D3D10/11 games with B8G8R8A8 or R10G10B10A2 backbuffer formats (Fear 3, Dirt 3)Fixed Team Fortress 2 not being playable in certain regions
